After crossing the portal, the cool and fragrant air of the Dream City was immediately dispersed by the cold and damp wind. The smell of moldy soil and rotten vegetation was mixed together, and it was also mixed with some kind of fishy odor from unknown sources. What you can see is dark clouds.
In the sky, the blood-red moonlight shines through the gaps in the clouds, casting a terrifying coat on everything. There are a few even darker dead trees growing sporadically on the pitch-black land, with teeth and claws spread like man-eating monsters. The mountains in the distance are only visible in the night.
A vague shadow appeared, dormant there like a huge and nameless monster, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
What the hell is this place? Why do I feel like the air here is full of malice?
"Your feeling is correct, the air here is indeed full of evil."
Sister Saiyi closed the portal behind her, waved her hand and began to change her clothes.
"Sister Saiyi, what are you doing?"
"To make yourself look less evil, you also need to change your clothes."
She waved her hand and asked me to change into a thick black nun's uniform. Now the long boots and beautiful legs that I was proud of were completely invisible. And she herself became a heavy armor wrapped in metal armor.
Knight. Viewing value is min, defense power is max.
"What the hell is this place? Why does it stink so much? And the moonlight is actually red, it looks so scary!"
Although this girl Bai Yanghua dares to yell at me crazily, she immediately hugs my arm and turns into a well-behaved little white rabbit when she encounters danger.
"Because the air here is full of pathogenic particles, these particles scatter blue-violet light, and only red light can break through many obstacles and reach the ground."
Sister Saiyi only answered half of the questions, but in fact the answers to the other half of the questions can be guessed from her words.
"Sister Saiyi, are you saying that there is a large-scale plague here? And this plague can also affect the weather?"
"That's how Amy has grown."
Sister Saiyi stretched out her hand and touched my head...scarf, her unsmiling face full of praise.
"So this is a place where plague is rampant, similar to the Middle Ages when the Black Death broke out?"
"It's more serious than the Black Death because this pathogen is not a microorganism, but a non-living thing."
"What do you mean? Is it toxin?"
"It can be regarded as a toxin, but this toxin has biological-like activity and can self-replicate and multiply."
"Isn't that a type of living thing? Our definition of living things is not that narrow. It can at least be said to be a kind of life, right?"
"The meaning of life is to maintain the continuation of the population. Whether it is the thinking nebula or prions, the disease is only a side effect of the continuation process and not the purpose. This is like a wolf hunting goats to keep them fed and alive, rather than to exterminate the goats.
"Humans pollute the environment not to pollute the environment, but to develop civilization."
"That's right~ The original viruses killed people because they only polluted but did not control them. Those viruses that have evolved intelligence are happy to coexist with their hosts."
"As for this kind of plague, the meaning of their existence is to kill more creatures, which is completely contrary to the original intention of life. In my opinion, they are just a kind of killing machine that can replicate itself."
"So this plague is man-made?"
"have no idea."
"Huh? How could you not know?"
"Because I don't want to know, and that's what the rest of the adventure is going to be about."
"Uh...well, this is indeed the style of a goddess."
I shook my head helplessly.
"Amy, aren't we here to save the world? Why not just use divine power to eliminate the plague?"
Bai Yanghua shook my arm and asked.
"That's true, but it's just a casual thing. The main purpose is to have fun..."
"How could this happen? Isn't it the goddess's duty to save the world? Playing is actually more important to you than business?"
"Yes...actually playing is the real thing. We have always saved the world based on our hobbies, and things like responsibilities are just rhetoric and have no binding force..."
"Then your words don't sound like farts!"
"Hey, hey, hey, why are you talking to a goddess? Are you slandering someone before you understand the situation? We goddesses only value the results and don't care much about the process. In other words, as long as the ending is good, it doesn't matter how messy the process is."
"It doesn't matter if there are dozens of dead people!"
"Yes, it doesn't matter. Our goddess has a very famous saying, 'If you don't remember your death, you haven't died'. No matter how many people die in this world now, we will eventually give the dead and the living a happy ending."
"What kind of bullshit theory is this? You should just die if you can!"
"Yes, so we will try our best to save people during operations...but within the scope of mortals, otherwise it will not be fun. You have to try to get used to this kind of goddess thinking. I couldn't accept it at first, but after I gradually understood
I don’t have to worry about it anymore.”
"What does it mean to just start? Don't you think you were a goddess enough at the beginning?"
"Of course, my thoughts are always changing~"
"I can't understand!"
"Then don't understand it yet, just experience it yourself. Our goddess is really not evil, just a little chaotic..."
"Okay! You won't listen to my opinion anyway, so I can only follow you~!"
"No, we will listen to your opinion, but only if the opinion is clear and feasible and can produce the expected results. We will definitely ignore opinions that are opposed for the sake of objection or come out of mouth."
Sister Saiyi stopped and looked at Bai Yanghua coldly.
"I know, Sister Saiyi...I will read more and talk less..."
Baiyanghua left and shrank her neck, changing from an arrogant girl to a super cowardly girl. It seems that it would be better for me to be colder to her in the future. She is a naughty child who needs to be dealt with.
The Dark Place, the Ghost Wilderness, the Rotten Plains... any of these terrible names are very suitable for this place. The plague seems to not only kill living things, but also inorganic substances such as soil and stones can be infiltrated and polluted. We
After walking in this ghostly place for half an hour, I could only see the dark earth and some dead plants, and occasionally some blackened animal remains popped up as embellishments. There was no ominous food here.
Rot crows, because they can't resist the ravages of the plague. There is no cry of animals or insects here, nothing, not even the wind, only the "squeak" sound of our boots stepping on the muddy ground. I am a germophobe.
People, even if they know that their boots won’t get dirty, can’t bear to walk on such a bad road. But Sister Sai doesn’t allow me to fly with the Holy Light, so I can only endure the discomfort and continue to move forward. That girl Bai Yanghua also kept frowning, not only
Feeling uncomfortable and scared.
The further we walked, the stronger the stench became. In the end, Baiyanghua and I couldn't bear it, so we managed to get Sister Sai to agree to let us add a purification technique to ourselves. At first, she refused to agree, and felt that we needed to do it ourselves.
Feel this rotten smell, otherwise the impression left will not be deep enough. In the end, Baiyanghua couldn't help but spit out the rainbow, and she relented and agreed to our request. This sister Saiyi is the same as all the sisters. No matter
Although he looks cold and ruthless on the outside, he is gentle and considerate on the inside.
"We're here, the first stop is ahead."
Sister Sai stopped and pointed to a dilapidated village in front of her. There were only charred ruins and a few wisps of gray smoke lingering over the ruins.
